Abstract
A fuel cell comprises an anode, a cathode, and a solid electrolyte layer disposed between the anode and the cathode. The cathode includes a perovskite oxide as a main component. The perovskite oxide is expressed by the general formula ABOand includes at least one of La and Sr at the A site. The cathode includes a surface region that is within 5 micrometers from the surface opposite the solid electrolyte layer. The surface region contains a main phase configured by the perovskite oxide and a secondary phase that is configured by strontium oxide. The occupied surface area ratio of the secondary phase in a cross section of the surface region is greater than or equal to 0.05% to less than or equal to 3%.
