Abstract
We describe a new type of a propagating optical mode in a bi perodic wavegide. It possesses a Dark Mode in formal analogy to the Dark atomic state involved in Electromagnetically Induced Transparency. It displays a transparency and slow light behavior free from the bandwidth-delay product constraint.
