THE CCD RIDDLE REVISTED: SIGNAL VERSUS TIME – LINEAR SIGNAL VERSUS VARIANCE – NON-LINEAR Mark Downing, Peter Sinclaire. European Southern Observatory ESO ( 1PTC SDW Oct 2013 But CCDs are suppose to be near perfect compared to …..

Previous results concluded…. 11 Oct 2013PTC SDW20132 “Sharing of electrons” between pixels that increase as more electrons are collected

More evidence gathered…PSF 11 Oct 2013PTC SDW20133 SlopeY-intersect PSF linearly degrades with signal. Both value and change with signal improve as 1/  collection phase voltage.

Mechanism behind “Charge Sharing” between Pixels 11 Oct 2013PTC SDW20134 Pixel 400nm Collection Phase Electric Field Extent CCD Front side Undepleted Region

100% agreement between non-linearity in PTC and correlation between pixels 11 Oct 2013PTC SDW20135 Signal 2 term Both slope and correlation between pixels vary linearly with signal Slope Both slope and signal 2 term vary with 1/  collection phase voltage.

PTC can be 100% corrected for correlation between pixels by using autocorrelation variance – most accurate method to determine gain 11 Oct 2013PTC SDW20136

On going…… Confirm that the effect can be predicted by taking two flat fields and by using autocorrelation to calculate the correlation and thus determine the PSF Vs Signal. Corrections can then be applied to image data. Consult the experts to better understand the cause of the effect and hopefully find a solution. 11 Oct 2013PTC SDW20137
