An object of the invention is to provide a catalyst of high activity having a dehydrogenation function or hydrogenation function, to provide a fuel cell with a high output density, and further to provide a hydrogen storage/supply device, with which hydrogen is stored or supplied in a high efficient manner. In order to achieve the above object, a porous oxide film of a metal oxide is formed on a hydrogen separation membrane surface of a catalyst having a dehydrogenation function or hydrogenation function and the hydrogen separation membrane is arranged so as to be partially exposed to at the interface with the porous oxide film. In doing so, hydrogen generated on the catalyst can quickly diffuse into the hydrogen separation membrane thereby efficiently releasing the hydrogen to outside of the reaction system. Eventually, the reaction efficiency can be improved. As to the fuel cell of the invention, the catalyst having the dehydrogenation function or hydrogenation function is used in a fuel cell and further in a hydrogen storage/supply device.
