Mn2+ doping of lead halide perovskites has garnered recent interest because it produces stable orange luminescence in tandem with perovskite emission. In this work, we observe enhanced Mn2+ luminescence at the edges of Mn2+-doped CsPbCl3 perovskite microplates and suggest an explanation for its origin using the high spatiotemporal resolution of time-resolved cathodoluminescence (TRCL) imaging. We reveal two luminescent decay components that we attribute to two different Mn2+ populations. While each component appears to be present both near the surface and in the bulk, the origin of the intensity variation stems from a higher proportion of the longer lifetime component near the perovskite surface. Overall, we suggest that this higher emission is caused by an increased probability of electron-hole recombination on Mn2+ near the perovskite surface due to an increased trap concentration there. This observation suggests that such surface features have yet untapped potential to enhance emissive properties via control of surface-to-volume ratio.
