Abstract:
Photoluminescence is a radiative recombination process of electron-hole pairs. Self-trapped excitons (STEs), occurring in a material with soft lattice and strong electron-phonon coupling, emit photons with broad spectrum and large Stokes shift. Recently, series halide perovskites with efficient STE emission have been reported and showed promise for solid-state lighting. In this Perspective, we present an overview of various photoluminescence phenomena with the emphasis on the mechanism and characteristics of emission derived from STEs. This is followed by the introduction of STE emission in hybrid halide perovskites. We then introduce all-inorganic STE emitters and focus in particular on the mechanism of STEs in double-perovskite Cs2AgInCl6 and strategies for efficiency improvement. Finally, we summarize the current photoluminescence and electroluminescence applications of STE emitters as well as the potential in luminescent solar concentrators and provide an overview of future research opportunities.

Electrocardiogram Fundamentals
An electrocardiogram (ECG) is a diagnostic tool for identifying cardiac conditions such as arrhythmias, conduction abnormalities, and myocardial ischemia.
Definition
An electrocardiogram (ECG) visualizes the heart's electrical activity by tracing the electrical movement associated with each heartbeat on a graph or monitor. As the heart beats, an electrical wave passes through it, correlating with the cardiac cycle events.

Alkyl Halides
Alkyl halides are halogen-substituted alkanes wherein one or more hydrogen atoms of an alkane is replaced by a halogen atom such as fluorine, chlorine, bromine, or iodine. The carbon atom in an alkyl halide is bonded to the halogen atom, which is sp3-hybridized and exhibits a tetrahedral shape.
Unlike alkyl halides, compounds in which a halogen atom is bonded to an sp2 -hybridized carbon atom of a carbon-carbon double bond (C=C) are called vinyl halides. Whereas aryl...
