We demonstrate a stable tunable dual-wavelength erbium-doped fiber laser generated by launching a mode-locked laser into an add-drop microring resonator. Two silicon-based high-index-contrast microring resonators with Q-factors of 1.2 x 10(5) and 0.6 x 10(5) have been used as add-drop filters indepe...
