Abstract
In an optical waveguide element which uses a rib type optical waveguide, light propagating in the rib type optical waveguide is monitored stably and accurately. The optical waveguide element includes a rib type optical waveguide provided on a optical waveguide substrate and configured of a convex portion protruding in a thickness direction of the optical waveguide substrate and extending in a plane direction of the optical waveguide substrate, and a light receiving element configured of a light receiving part formed on a light receiving element substrate disposed on the rib type optical waveguide and configured to receive at least a part of light propagating through the rib type optical waveguide, and the light receiving element substrate is supported by at least one first convex portion having the same height as that of the rib type optical waveguide provided on the optical waveguide substrate.
