The temperature dependence of the effective refractive index of the mixture has been analyzed through the spectral evolution of the output power ratio of a beam crossing a sample. Both the nanoparticle size and the concentration effects have been analyzed to design a potential temperature sensor.}, organization = {Authors acknowledge funding support from the Spanish Ministerio de Economía y Competitividad (grants no.
