    Abstract: A membrane electrode assembly includes an electrolyte membrane, and a pair of electrode layers which sandwich the electrolyte membrane. The pair of electrode layers include a pair of catalyst layers which sandwich the electrolyte membrane, and a pair of gas diffusion layers disposed on the pair of catalyst layers on opposite sides to the electrolyte membrane. At least one catalyst layer contains a fibrous electric conductor, catalyst particles, a particulate electric conductor, and a proton-conductive resin. The at least one catalyst layer has a first region at a distance of 200 nm or less from the fibrous electric conductor, and a second region at a distance of more than 200 nm from the fibrous electric conductor. Pores are present in the first and second regions. A mode diameter M1 of the pores in the first region and a mode diameter M2 of the pores in the second region satisfy M1

    Abstract: A positive electrode with a positive electrode mixture layer provided on a surface of a positive electrode current collector, which includes a first layer contacting the positive electrode current collector and a second layer contacting the first layer. The first layer includes first active material particles with a particle diameter L. The second layer includes active material particles with a particle diameter R. Third positive electrode active material particles with a particle diameter r are included at least at an interface between the first and the second layers, wherein R>L>r. The first active material particles include a lithium transition metal composite oxide with a ratio of Co in metal element atoms other than Li of 2 atom % or more. The second and third active material particles including a different lithium transition metal composite oxide than the first active material particles.
