An optical waveguide device has an optical waveguide substrate and a
supporting body for supporting the substrate. The substrate has a main
body made of an electro-optic material and having a main face and an
opposing face, optical waveguides, and electrodes for applying an
electrical signal on the optical waveguides. At least a part of the
opposing face of the supporting body opposing the substrate is covered
with a conductive layer. It is thus possible to reduce the resonance due
to substrate radiation leakage of the microwave signal into the whole of
the optical waveguide substrate and supporting body.
