The magnetic switching device which employs what has come to be known as the Wiegand Effect is described in U.S. Pat. No. 3,820,090. What is disclosed herein is an improved switching device made from an alloy of iron, cobalt and vanadium that provides a greater switching effect. An improved or optimized torsional strain routine for fabricating the wire switching device is also disclosed. The improved switching device provides its maximum output pulse when the wire is switched in an asymmetric fashion.
