A General Electric NE-34 glow lamp, manufactured circa 1930. Neon was discovered in 1898 by William Ramsay and Morris Travers.The characteristic, brilliant red color that is emitted by gaseous neon when excited electrically was noted immediately; Travers later wrote, "the blaze of crimson light from the tube told its own story and was a sight to dwell upon and never forget."
Neon lighting consists of brightly glowing, electrified glass tubes or bulbs that contain rarefied neon or other gases. Neon lights are a type of cold cathode gas-discharge light. A neon tube is a sealed glass tube with a metal electrode at each end, filled with one of a number of gases at
The abundances of the naturally occurring isotopes of neon. Neon (10 Ne) possesses three stable isotopes: 20 Ne, 21 Ne, and 22 Ne. In addition, 17 radioactive isotopes have been discovered, ranging from 15 Ne to 34 Ne, all short-lived. The longest-lived is 24 Ne with a half-life of 3.38(2) min. All others are under a minute, most under a second.
Neon has three main stable isotopes: 20 Ne, 21 Ne and 22 Ne, with 20 Ne produced by cosmic nucleogenic reactions, causing high abundance in the atmosphere. [ 97 ] [ 103 ] 21 Ne and 22 Ne are produced in the earth's crust as a result of interactions between alpha and neutron particles with light elements; 18 O, 19 F and 24,25 Mg. [ 104 ]
