ABSTRACT Indium(III)‐based hybrid halides are emerging low‐dimensional luminescent materials; however, their rigid lattices and d 10 electronic configuration of In 3+ suppress intrinsic self‐trapped‐exciton (STE) emission, leading to limited photoluminescence quantum yield (PLQY). To address this issue, Sb 3+ is doped into the 0D (Me 2 NH 2 ) 4 InCl 7 host, transforming it from a nearly non‐emissive material into a highly efficient warm‐white STE emitter. The optimized (Me 2 NH 2 ) 4 InCl 7 :0.2Sb 3+ delivers a near‐unity PLQY (∼100%) under 350 nm excitation. Single‐crystal structural analysis and theoretical calculations reveal substitutional Sb 3+ at In 3+ sites, inducing locally distorted SbCl 6 octahedra. This Sb 3+ ‐triggered local lattice distortion strengthens electron–phonon coupling, and it deepens the STE potential well and suppresses non‐radiative relaxation pathways, thereby enabling robust broadband STE emission with a microsecond‐scale lifetime (4.28 µs), a large Stokes shift (280 nm), and a wide bandwidth (177 nm). This work provides a facile route to realize warm‐white emission from a single host lattice based on stable, low‐toxicity indium‐based hybrid halides.
