Can noble gases be ionized?

I am studying for a Chemistry Test, and I am wondering why things like Neon Hydride for example don't exist. Is this because they already are stable, and there's no point in becoming ionized? Are there any compounds with noble gases in them? Please explain. Thanks!

    The noble gases are very stable.

    You will find compounds from the heavy noble gases with compounds such as XeF4 and various other combinations usually involving F.
