To this purpose, DBR (distributed Bragg reflectors) have been used to enhance the reflectivity at the lateral ends of the wires. The transduction mechanism encompasses both the luminescence features of the characteristic R-lines of Cr^(3+) ions in this host as well as the interferometric effects of the Fabry-Perot resonances within the cavity.engGa_2O_3 microwires as wide dynamical range temperature sensorsbook parthttp://dx.doi.org/10.1117/12.2618319https://www.spiedigitallibrary.org/open access538.9Gallium oxideDBR microcavitiesCr ion levelsTemperature sensorFísica de materialesFísica del estado sólido2211 Física del Estado Sólido
