Proposed is a method for manufacturing a selective emitter using a surface structure, the method includes: preparing a wafer; forming fine first surface unevenness in each of front and rear faces of the wafer; forming a texturing-inhibiting film on each of the front and rear faces of the wafer; partially patterning the front texturing-inhibiting film to expose a portion of the front face of the wafer; forming second surface unevenness in the exposed portion of the wafer, wherein the second surface unevenness has a roughness greater and deeper than a roughness of the first surface unevenness; removing the texturing-inhibiting films; and forming a selective emitter on a surface of the wafer having the first surface unevenness and the second surface unevenness defined therein using a doping process.
