Correlation between defects and electrical conduction in surface conductive layers of CVD diamond films has been studied using electron spin resonance ( ESR ) and two points probe technique methods. The ESR analysis revealed the presence of Pac-center with spin density of 1020 spins/cm3. The Pac-center is composed from two ESR signals: ESR signal from carbon dangling bond with carbon atom neighbors and ESR signal from carbon dangling bond associated with nearest neighbor hole ( hole associated Pac-center ). The hole associated Pac-center is an electrically active defect.
