In this paper we present the testing of a back-illuminated development Euclid Visible Instrument (VIS) Charge-Coupled Device (CCD) to measure the intrinsic CCD Point Spread Function (PSF) characteristics using a novel modelling technique. We model the optical spot projection system and the CCD273-84 PSF jointly. We fit a model using Bayesian posterior probability density function, sampling to all available data simultaneously. The generative model fitting is shown, using simulated data, to allow good parameter estimations even when these data are not well sampled. Using available spot data we characterise a CCD273-84 PSF as a function of wavelength and intensity. The CCD PSF kernel size was found to increase with increasing intensity and decreasing wavelength.

    Filter-substrate refraction causes dominant lateral shifts yielding 0.3-0.4% PSF size and ellipticity residuals across most Roman bands that exceed weak lensing requirements by an order of magnitude, while longitudina...
