What is used to make globe filaments?

The first successful light bulb filaments were made of carbon (from carbonized paper or bamboo). In 1902 the Siemens company developed a tantalum lamp filament. From 1898 to around 1905 osmium was also used as a lamp filament. In 1906 the tungsten filament was introduced

How can a flashlight be luminous?

A flashlight is a device whose purpose it to emit light, or be luminous. The 2 most common types of flashlights are LED or bulb. LED, or Light Emitting Diode flashlights run electricity though semiconductors that manipulate the current in a way that releases photons, the tiny packets of energy that make up light. Bulbs use incandescence to produce light, which is produced though the resistance of the material (or filament) to the electricity that is being forced though it. The material heats up, but due to the low oxygen in the glass bulb it cannot oxidize, and instead glows.
