Decoupling the spins of a quantum system from environmental noises is the key to avoid decoherence. At the same time, electrical control over the spin state is a highly desirable feature for integration with present devices. Herein, Reale et al. demonstrate all-electrical spin drive and read-out of an individual Er atom with well decoupled 4f electrons.
