Abstract
An optical waveguide element that has improved frequency response in a high frequency region is provided. An optical waveguide element includes: a substrate that has an electro-optic effect; an optical waveguide that is formed on the substrate; a control electrode that is for modulating light waves propagating through the optical waveguide; and a reinforcing substrate that holds the substrate via an adhesion layer, and the reinforcing substrate has a low-dielectric constant portion with a lower dielectric constant than that of the reinforcing substrate at least in a part of a region in a plan view of the reinforcing substrate such that the low-dielectric constant portion partitions the reinforcing substrate in a thickness direction.
