  Neon Lamp - MSN Encarta
Neon Lamp, glass bulb or tube containing the gaseous element neon at low pressure, and two metallic electrodes.
The lamp produces a reddish-orange glow when an electric current, applied across the electrodes, is raised in voltage to the point at which it ionizes the gas in the tube (see Electric Lighting; Ionization).
Neon lamps of this type, and lamps using other gaseous elements such as, argon or krypton, are used extensively for advertising signs.

 Neon Signs
The neon sign is an evolution of the earlier Geissler tube (also called a Crookes tube), which is a glass tube for demonstrating the principles of electrical discharge.
The development of neon signs is credited to Georges Claude and the first public display of a neon sign was of two 38-foot long tubes in December of 1910 at the Paris Expo.
Neon or argon are the most common; krypton, xenon, and helium are used by artists for special purposes.

When the current through the lamp is lower than the current for the highest-current discharge path, the glow discharge may become unstable and not covering the entire surface of the electrodes.
Neon lamps with several shaped electrodes are used as alphanumerical displays known as Nixie tubes.
While most operating characteristics remain similar, the lamps light with a bluish glow (including some ultraviolet) rather than neon's characteristic reddish-orange glow; the UV radiation then can be used to excite a phosphor coating of the inside of the bulb and provide a wide range of various colors, including white.
