Provided is a method of forming a transparent, conductive film on a semiconductor layer formed on a substrate, by sputtering, wherein voltages are applied independently of each other to both a target and the substrate, respectively, and a bias voltage appearing in the substrate is controlled so as to form the transparent, conductive film on only a portion except for a defective region of the semiconductor layer, thereby restraining shunting of the transparent, conductive film and achieving excellent appearance thereof. Also provided are a defective region compensation method of a semiconductor layer, a photovoltaic element, and a method of producing the photovoltaic element.
