“One thing I know about my daughter — she is not a nature young lady,” her mother, Lattice Sutton, told The Times in 2010.

The wrought-iron lattice tower was initially heavily criticised by Parisian artists and intellectuals - but is now seen by many as the symbol of the "City of Light".

This amorphous interphase disappears again when the current stops flowing, and most of the copper atoms return to the solid lattice.

One idea is to create artificial crystals with the BECs trapped in an optical lattice made from lasers.

Due to the ultra-thin structure of the material, the negatively charged electron and the positively charged 'hole' it leaves behind in the atomic lattice stay bound together by the electrostatic attraction between them, forming what is known as an 'exciton'.
