Solid-state qubits: Forget about being clean, embrace mess

Within a dense system some terbium ions form pair states. Because of their unique properties, these pairs are blind to the single terbium ions nearby that would cause them to lose their quantum information. Protected from their messy environment, they can act as qubits with surprisingly long coherence lifetimes.
