Impedance matched electrical interconnect using dielectric compounds

An improved electrical interconnect is formed wherein a dielectric material having a controllable characteristic is applied to at least a portion of the interconnect. The controllable characteristic of the dielectric material is selectively adjustable so that the impedance of the electrical interconnect is substantially matched to at least one impedance at first and second ends of the interconnect. In this manner, an electrical discontinuity between the first and second ends of the electrical interconnect is reduced, thereby improving an electrical performance of the interconnect.
