An object according to the present invention is to provide a catalyst layer for a fuel cell, which prevents the lowering of the performance due to the lack of oxygen in a high current density region and can provide a desired power, even when containing a small amount of catalyst particles. The catalyst layer for a fuel cell has a structure including: an electroconductive carrier made of a secondary particle which is formed by agglomerating a plurality of primary particles; catalyst particles which are dispersed on and carried by the electroconductive carrier; and an ionomer which covers the electroconductive carrier and the catalyst particles, wherein the catalyst particles have the particle quantity in a range of 0.05 mg/cm2 to 0.15 mg/cm2, the electroconductive carriers have the average secondary particle size in a range of 100 nm to 180 nm, and the ionomer has the film thickness in a range of 6 nm to 16 nm. Thereby, the catalyst layer for a fuel cell can reduce the amount of oxygen per one piece of the secondary particles to inhibit oxygen from concentrating on the surface of the ionomer, and shortens the diffusion distance of oxygen in the ionomer to alleviate a rate-controlled condition by the concentration diffusion process of oxygen in the catalyst layer.
