A fuel cell having a structure capable of certainly supplying a gas by
making effective use of a limited space while ensuring the portability of
the fuel cell is provided. The fuel cell includes two generators, a fuel
supply portion, and two planar current collectors. Each of the generators
has a proton conductor film, and a planar hydrogen side electrode and a
planar oxygen side electrode disposed with the proton conductor film held
therebetween. The fuel supply portion is adapted to supply a fuel to the
hydrogen side electrodes of the generators. The planar current
collectors, which are disposed in close-contact with the oxygen side
electrodes of the generators, have gas transmission portions such as
opening portions allowing the oxygen side electrodes to be opened to
atmosphere. Since the oxygen side electrodes are opened to atmosphere,
oxygen can be supplied to the generators without lowering a partial
pressure of oxygen in air.
