1. A circuit material for the formation of circuits or multi-layer circuits, the circuit material comprising
a first conductive layer;
a layer of a dielectric material disposed on the first conductive layer, wherein the dielectric material comprises the reaction product of a polyhedral silsesquioxane and a dielectric polymer, wherein the dielectric polymer is an alkenyl-terminated polydialkylsiloxane, an alkenyl-terminated polydiarylsiloxane, an alkenyl-terminated polyalkylarylsiloxane, or an alkenyl-terminated copoly(dialkylsiloxane/diarylsiloxane); and
a second conductive layer disposed on the layer of dielectric material on a side opposite the first conductive layer.
