An electrical device is made by partially pyrolyzing polymer material by heating the material to between 500 DEG C. and 800 DEG C. Electrodes are applied to the material at two different locations to define an electrically active element therebetween. The device exhibits negative resistance in a portion of its voltage current domain and function as bi-directional electrical switches. This application is a continuation of application Ser. No. 859,709, filed May 5, 1986, now abandoned, which is a divisional application of application ser. No. 487,401, filed Apr. 21, 1983, now U.S. Pat. No. 4,642,644.
