We report a study on transformations in absorption and emission spectra of novel bismuth (Bi) doped hafnia-yttria-alumina-silicate fiber, which arise as the result of bombardment by high-energy (β) electrons. Among the featuring data obtained, we reveal substantial growth of ‘active’ Bi center content in the fiber core-glass with increasing β-irradiation dosage, resulting in dose-dependent intensification of the resonant-absorption bands and enhancement of the emissive potential of the fiber in near-IR, inherent to these centers.
