We show that
the transition of free particles (regardless of their mass)
through a periodically driven potential barrier can be almost 
,
although the probability of tunneling through the static potential
barrier is almost zero.
The conditions for this to happen are discussed and
physical candidates for field-induced transparency are examined.
