ASML High-NA EUV (EXE:5000/5200)

0.55-NA next-generation lithography, ~€350M per system

High-NA EUV (numerical aperture 0.55 vs 0.33 for standard EUV) is the successor litho platform enabling sub-2nm scaling with fewer multi-patterning steps. Intel took the first EXE:5000 systems in 2024-2025 for 18A/14A; TSMC and Samsung followed with more caution on cost. Each tool costs roughly double a standard EUV scanner and weighs ~150 tons, cementing ASML's monopoly deeper into the sub-2nm era.
