Neon is a brightly glowing, energized glass tube or bulb filled with a thin supply of neon or other rare gases. It is a cold cathode gas discharge lamp. A neon tube is a sealed glass tube with electrodes at both ends, which is filled with some low-pressure gas.

A voltage of several thousand volts is applied to the electrode and the gas in the tube is ionized to make it emit light. The color of the light depends on the gas in the tube.
