Erbium quantum emitters operating in the telecom C band are promising for spin-photon interfaces but achieving both optical and spin coherence has been challenging. Gupta et al. report two types of erbium dopants in epitaxial Y2O3 thin films occupying distinct lattice sites and exhibiting long spin and optical coherence times
