Provided is a solid oxide fuel cell having a service life of approximately 90,000 hours, a level required to encourage the widespread use of SOFC. The solid oxide fuel cell according to the present invention comprises a solid electrolyte layer, an oxygen electrode layer provide to one side of the solid electrolyte layer, and a fuel electrode layer provide to the other side of the solid electrolyte layer. The oxygen electrode layer is made from a material including iron or manganese, the solid electrolyte layer is made from a scandia-stabilized zirconia electrolyte material containing alumina, and the solid electrolyte layer has a lanthanoid oxide and/or yttria dissolved therein. |
