The present invention aims to provide a highly reliable semiconductor element with high performance, and a fabrication method for such highly reliable semiconductor with excellent mass producibility. The photovoltaic elements comprise an electric conductor, semiconductor regions and a transparent conductor layer, which are sequentially formed on a substrate. The shunt resistance in the semiconductor element is rendered in the range from 1.times.10.sup.3 .OMEGA.cm.sup.2 to 1.times.10.sup.6 .OMEGA.cm.sup.2 by performing a forming treatment and a short circuit passivation treatment after forming the transparent conductor layer, and then selectively covering with insulation the defective portions with a cationic or anionic electrodeposited resin, or performing a forming treatment, after forming the semiconductor layers, then selectively covering with insulation the defective portions with a cationic or anionic electrodeposited resin, and then forming the transparent conductor layer.

A photovoltaic element having an electrode structure having joining portions (A) in which collecting electrodes are spacedly arranged on a light receiving face side of the photovoltaic element such that they are individually joined to a bus bar electrode. Each of the joining portions (A) has a first joining portion (i) having a first paste. Each of collecting electrodes (b) excluding the collecting electrodes (a) positioned at opposite end sides of the arrangement of the collecting electrodes further has a second joining portion (ii) having a second paste with a smaller resistivity than that of the first paste. A proportion of the first joining portion (i) in the joining portion (A) of each of the collecting electrodes (a) is greater than a proportion of the first joining portion (i) in the joining portion (A) of each of the collecting electrodes (b). A process for the production of the photovoltaic element.
