An arrayed waveguide grating device and a method for manufacturing the arrayed waveguide grating device. The arrayed waveguide grating device includes input channel waveguides formed on a substrate; output channel waveguides formed on the substrate that correspond to the input channel waveguides; and arrayed waveguides with different lengths interposed between the input channel waveguides and the output channel waveguides on the substrate while free propagation regions being formed at both ends of the arrayed waveguides, wherein the arrayed waveguides are designed so that a free spectral range (FSR) of a higher-order mode is twice or greater than a bandwidth of a region of interest (ROI).
