An optical wave guide device is manufactured by bonding an optical wave
guide to an optical modulator through an upper cladding layer. The
optical wave guide includes a glass substrate, a lower cladding layer and
cores, and the optical modulator includes elements (heaters), which are
disposed on the lower surface of a glass substrate, for modulating the
light propagating in the cores, and electrodes and wire bond pads which
are disposed on the front surface thereof. The elements are connected to
the electrodes via through-holes. With this arrangement, there can be
provided an optical waveguide device, in which cores are not degraded in
manufacturing processes and elements for modulating the light propagating
in the cores are unlikely to be exfoliated.
