    "abstract": "We revisit the problem of laser-induced suppression of quantum dynamical\ntunneling in a model system studied by Kilin et al. [Phys. Rev. Lett. 76 (1996)\n3297]. This quantum system consists of a ground state symmetric double-well\npotential which is coupled by a strong laser field to an excited state\nasymmetric double-well potential. By analyzing the assumptions used in their\nanalysis we show that the suppression of quantum dynamical tunneling can be\nexplained with the use of dark and bright states of the system. We also\ngeneralize the system and the conditions for suppression of quantum tunneling\nand show that, in certain cases, suppression can occur regardless the\ncharacteristics of the excited potential surface.",
