Popis:	The low excess loss experimental demonstration of ten successive light divisions is presented. This distribution is realized by using shallow-etched rib silicon-on-insulator waveguides with compact beam splitters and 90° turns based on total internal reflection corner mirrors. The measured excess optical loss is only 0.7dB per division. This result is an important step in a 1 to 1024 optical distribution demonstration.
