(Thanks Bob, it's easier than going to the other guy's site.)

And an extract from the article.

...
In lithography, demand for DUV systems has been so great that Silicon
Valley Group Inc. (SVG) has decided to sell tools only for 0.25-micron
feature sizes and below, said Papken S. Der Torossian, chairman and CEO
of the San Jose company. "There is simply not enough capacity to do 0.18
micron. Probably no more than 10 companies worldwide can now produce
[with] that technology," he said. "But in 1999 and 2000 you will see an
acceleration to step-and-scan deep-UV [here]."
