Abstract
An electrochemical device includes: an electrolyte membrane; an anode disposed on a first main surface of the electrolyte membrane; a cathode disposed on a second main surface of the electrolyte membrane; an anode separator disposed on the anode; and a cathode separator disposed on the cathode and including a first conductive layer on a surface adjacent to the cathode. The cathode includes a cathode gas diffusion layer. The cathode separator has a recess for storing the cathode gas diffusion layer. The first conductive layer is disposed only on a bottom surface of the recess.
