Abstract
A method of manufacturing a fuel cell includes: growing carbon nanotubes substantially perpendicular to a substrate formed by loading a growth catalyst on a base material; arranging the substrate and a polymer electrolyte membrane so as to oppose to each other and combining the carbon nanotubes with the polymer electrolyte membrane; and dissolving and removing part of the substrate by immersing the substrate in a solution which dissolves the substrate, after the carbon nanotubes and the polymer electrolyte membrane are combined.
