We describe a successful demonstration of highly stable and narrowly spaced dual-wavelength output via an ytterbium-doped fiber laser. A microfiber-based Mach-Zehnder interferometer and a tunable bandpass filter were both placed into the laser ring cavity for the purpose of ensuring a stable and nar...
