Abstract[English] The invention relates to the technical field of substrate surface treatment by plasma etching and/or atomic layer deposition. A substrate processing apparatus (1) comprising at least one magnet arrangement recipient (13) adapted to receive a magnet arrangement (9) is provided. When the magnet arrangement (9) is received by the magnet arrangement recipient (13), no electron cyclotron resonance (ECR) is provided inside the apparatus (1). Furthermore, a substrate processing apparatus (1) comprising at least one microwave transmissive material window (16) having an electrically conductive frame (17) and one or multiple electrically conductive wires (18) is provided to attract cleaning gas ions. Moreover, a method of in-situ cleaning of a substrate processing apparatus (1) and a use of the apparatus (1) and of the method are provided.[French] L'invention concerne le domaine technique du traitement de surface de substrat par gravure par plasma et/ou dépôt de couche atomique. L'invention propose un appareil de traitement de substrat (1) comprenant au moins un récipient d'agencement d'aimants (13) conçu pour recevoir un agencement d'aimants (9). Lorsque l'agencement d'aimants (9) est reçu par le récipient d'agencement d'aimants (13), aucune résonance cyclotronique électronique (ECR) n'est disposée à l'intérieur de l'appareil (1). En outre, un appareil de traitement de substrat (1) comprenant au moins une fenêtre de matériau transmettant les micro-ondes (16) présentant un cadre électroconducteur (17) et un ou plusieurs fils électroconducteurs (18) est prévu pour attirer des ions de gaz de nettoyage. De plus, l'invention propose un procédé de nettoyage in situ d'un appareil de traitement de substrat (1) et une utilisation de l'appareil (1) et du procédé.
