We consider the problem of non-parametric estimation of the deterministic dispersion coefficient of a linear stochastic differential equation based on discrete time observations on its solution. We take a Bayesian approach to the problem and under suitable regularity assumptions derive the posteror contraction rate. This rate turns out to be the optimal posterior contraction rate.
