What happens to the QCD vacuum when a time-periodic circularly polarized laser field with a sufficiently large intensity and frequency is applied? Based on the Floquet formalism for periodically driven systems and the systematic low-energy effective theory of QCD, we show that for a sufficiently large frequency and above a critical intensity, the QCD vacuum is unstable against the chiral soliton lattice of pions; a crystalline structure of topological solitons that spontaneously breaks parity and continuous translational symmetries. Our work would pave the way for novel "Floquet vacuum engineering."

Dislocations and crystallization dynamics of chiral soliton lattices
A modified axion model with a B-dependent topological coupling shows numerically that chiral soliton lattices form dynamically through transient edge and screw dislocations, including a stable DNA-like double helix.
