A method for producing an electrode-membrane-frame assembly according to the present invention includes arranging a previously molded first molded body on a circumferential region of first catalyst layer close to first gas diffusion layer, arranging a previously molded second molded body on a circumferential region of second catalyst layer close to second gas diffusion layer, and forming a third molded body by injection molding so as to integrally connect the first molded body and the second molded body and not to be directly in contact with an inner side region of second main surface of a polymer electrolyte membrane positioned on an inner side of an outer edge part of the second molded body when viewed from a thickness direction of the polymer electrolyte membrane, whereby a frame having the first, second, and the third molded body is formed. Thus, the polymer electrolyte membrane can be prevented from deteriorating.

First rubbing is performed on an entire surface of an alignment film provided on a substrate, and then a mask part for masking a first region and a region of an alignment mark is formed on the alignment film by using a resist layer. After performing second rubbing on the alignment film through the mask part, the mask part is removed, and a liquid crystal layer is formed on the alignment film. In this way, the alignment mark is formed as a region having an optical function different from an optical function of a region surrounding the alignment mark. Thus, it is possible to produce a substrate having an alignment mark formed without increasing processing steps at such a position as to contact the liquid crystal layer.

There is provided a film electrode assembly for a fuel cell capable of preventing a polymer electrolyte film from being exposed. The film electrode assembly includes: a main body portion of a film electrode assembly having a polymer electrolyte film, and a pair of electrode layers having catalyst layers placed on the two surfaces of the polymer electrolyte film on the inner side from the peripheral edge portion thereof and diffusion layers each having a peripheral edge protruding from the catalyst layer, which are laminated on one another, with a gap being formed between the protruding portion of the diffusion layer and the peripheral edge portion of the polymer electrolyte film; a frame member that sandwiches the peripheral edge portion of the polymer electrolyte film between the paired electrode layers with a gap therebetween, and is formed so as to surround an outer edge of the polymer electrolyte film; and gaskets made of a thermoplastic resin, which are placed on the two surfaces of the frame member. Each gasket includes an annular portion that covers the peripheral edge portion of the main body portion of the film electrode assembly over the entire circumference thereof along the inner edge of the frame member and a gap filling portion that fills the gap.
