Disclosed is a method of making an electrochemical cell, comprising: depositing an anode layer on a surface of a porous metal support layer; depositing an electrolyte layer on a surface of the anode layer, wherein the electrolyte layer is deposited via suspension plasma spray, wherein the electrolyte layer conducts protons; and depositing a cathode layer on a surface of the electrolyte layer. Also disclosed is a stack comprising two or more of the electrochemical cell.
