An optical waveguide device includes a waveguide layer that converts a wavelength of incident light and emits converted light. In the waveguide layer, a ridge waveguide and slab waveguides are provided, the slab waveguides being formed on both sides of the ridge waveguide with recess portions intervening therebetween. The waveguide layer satisfies a multi-mode condition for the incident light, and light propagating through the ridge waveguide is in a single mode.

An optical waveguide substrate having a substrate made of ferroelectric optical single crystal and a ridge portion projected from a main plane of the substrate, has a construction such that the ridge portion has a base portion made of ferroelectric optical single crystal and an optical waveguide formed on the base portion. The optical waveguide substrate is formed by forming at least one optical waveguide layer on a main plane of a substrate made of ferroelectric optical single crystal, and mechanically working main planes of the optical waveguide layer and the substrate to form a ridge portion projected from the main plane of the substrate. The optical waveguide substrate can reduce a light transmission loss, increase an extinction ratio, and improve an electric field applying efficiency.
