Abstract:
In an SOFC, a solid electrolyte layer and an anode are integrated with each other to provide an electrolyte layer-anode assembly. The anode contains a nickel element and a first proton conductor. The first proton conductor is composed of a first perovskite oxide having proton conductivity. The first perovskite oxide has an AXO 3 -type crystal structure, the A-site containing Ba, the X-site containing Y and at least one selected from the group consisting of Zr and Ce. The nickel element is at least partially in the form of NiO. The anode has a porosity P a  of 10% or more by volume when I Ni /I NiO ≤0.1, where I Ni /I NiO  denotes a relative intensity ratio of the peak intensity I Ni  of metallic Ni to the peak intensity I NiO  of the NiO in an XRD spectrum of the anode.

Claim (Index 9):
The method for producing an electrolyte layer-anode assembly according to  claim 8 , further comprising before the step B1, a step B2 of applying a paste containing a nickel element and a third proton conductor to one main surface of the green body obtained in the step A to form a coating film b2,\n wherein in the step B1, the coating film b1 is formed on an exposed surface of the coating film b2 obtained in the step B2, in the step C, an intermediate layer provided between the anode and the solid electrolyte layer is formed from the coating film b2, and the intermediate layer has a porosity P i  lower than the porosity P a .
