contents Electromagnetically induced transparency (EIT), arising from quantum interference in coherently driven atomic systems, has inspired a variety of photonic analogues, such as coupled-resonator-induced transparency (CRIT) built on the quantum-state modelling using resonators. Although CRIT serves as a building block for slow light in photonic integrated circuits, recent advances in topological photonics motivate a further generalization of both EIT and CRIT using gauge-field degrees of freedom. Here, we propose generalized CRIT via a spinor representation with dual-channel gauge fields, enabling fully programmable CRIT featuring dynamical spectral engineering. We generalize the traditional EIT framework by introducing a spinor representation of bright- and dark-mode resonances, yielding a unified description of design parameters through universal unitary operations. Implementing a coupled-resonator building block that accesses the entire design space through dual-channel gauge fields, we demonstrate a programmable slow-light band in a one-dimensional CRIT lattice. These results address urgent needs in optical interconnects, such as tunable delay lines, reconfigurable synchronization, and linear frequency conversion.
