We study a planar metamaterial supporting electromagnetically-inducedtransparency (EIT)-like effect by exploiting the coupling between bright andquasi-dark eigenmodes. The specific design of such a metamaterial consists of acut-wire (CW) and a single-gap split-ring resonator (SRR). From the numericaland the analytical results we demonstrate that the response of SRR, which isweakly excited by external electric field, is mitigated to be a quasi-darkeigenmode in the presence of strongly radiative CW. This result suggests morerelaxed conditions for the realization of devices utilizing the EIT-likeeffects in metamaterial, and thereby widens the possibilities for manydifferent structural implementations.
