We study a system of three coherently coupled states, where one state is shifted periodically against the other two. We discover that this system possesses a dark Floquet state that has zero quasi-energy and negligible population at the intermediate state. This dark Floquet state manifests itself dynamically in terms of the suppression of inter-state tunneling, a phenomenon known as coherent destruction of tunneling (CDT). Owing to its different origin from the CDT found in a two-state-driven system, we call it dark CDT. At a high-frequency limit for the periodic driving, this Floquet state reduces to the well-known dark state. Our results can be generalized to systems with more states and be verified with easily implemented experiments within the current technologies.
