A process device and a method for processing a substrate. A dipole ring magnet (DRM) is arranged in a manner so that a leakage magnetic field in the neighborhood of the process device and at a position a prescribed distance therefrom is minimized. The dipole ring magnet (DRM) rotates around an outer periphery of a process chamber which has a plasma generation device, a substantially cylindrical shield plate covering an outer periphery of the dipole ring magnet. The shield is rotated coaxially with the dipole ring magnet and in a direction opposite to the rotation of the dipole ring magnet. In this way a magnetic field is generated in a direction that cancels leakage magnetic flux generated outside the dipole ring magnet.
