Abstract
In forming a fuel cell stack by stacking a plurality of fuel cell units, in order to provide a fuel cell in which the fuel cell stack can be stably bound, the supply of fuel and conduction of respective cells can be surely performed, and stable power generation is possible, the fuel cell includes a fuel cell stackformed by stacking a plurality of fuel cell unitshaving a fuel electrodeand an oxidizer electrode. The oxidizer electrode has, in a plane orthogonal to a stacking direction of the fuel cell units, an elastic member (an oxidizer electrode diffusion layer)that is arranged in parallel to a rigid supporting memberand has electrical conductivity.
