Detectors Non-Linearity

Non linearities of WIRCam detectors as measured in August 2006, July 2007 and April 2008. In all cases, one can expect around 10% non-linearities close to the saturation limit on all detectors.

WIRCam non-linearity decreases following an order 2 polynomial and reaches 5% at about the half well.
