The present invention comprises methods and compositions of dielectric
materials. The dielectric materials of the present invention comprise
materials having a dielectric constant of more than 1.0 and less than 1.9
and/or a dissipation factor of less than 0.0009. Other characteristics
include the ability to withstand a wide range of temperatures, from both
high temperatures of approximately +260.degree. C. to low temperatures of
approximately -200.degree. C., operate in wide range of atmospheric
conditions and pressures (e.g., a high atmosphere, low vacuum condition
such as that found in the outer-space as well as conditions similar to
those found at sea level or below sea level). The dielectric materials of
the present invention may be used in the manufacture of composite
structures that can be used alone or in combination with other materials,
and can be used in electronic components or devices such as RF
interconnects.
