Ionization energy generally increases from left to right along the period while decreasing from top to bottom in a group. 

Also, the half and fully filled are more stable electronic configurations. 

Ne [3s23p3] and Ar [3d104s24p3] are more stable due to half filled p - orbitals but Ne [3s23p3] is smaller in size hence, more ionization energy.
