According to the present invention, since the inside of a hole formed in a sidewall of a process vessel of a plasma processing unit is filled with a dielectric, a propagation rate of the electromagnetic wave to a pickup antenna is improved when an electromagnetic wave generated due to abnormality in plasma such as abnormal discharge is to be detected via the hole. Accordingly, it is possible to improve detection sensitivity without any change in size or length of the hole. Consequently, abnormal discharge in plasma processing can be detected with high accuracy.
