A dielectric substrate may support conductive traces that form windings for a least one pole of a planar armature of an axial flux machine. At least a portion of the dielectric substrate, which is adapted to be positioned within an annular active area of the axial flux machine, may include a soft magnetic material. Such a planar armature may be produced, for example, by forming the conductive traces on the dielectric substrate, and filling interstitial gaps between the conductive traces with at least one epoxy material in which the soft magnetic material is embedded.

A method of forming a structure upon a substrate is disclosed. The method comprises: providing a substrate upon a surface of which a plurality of electrically conductive pads are disposed; depositing fluid containing a dispersion of electrically polarizable nanoparticles onto the substrate such that at least a portion of a first one of the plurality of pads is in contact with the fluid; applying an alternating electric field to the fluid using a first electrode and a second electrode, the first electrode being positioned so as to provide an effective first electrode end position from which the electric field is applied, coincident with the deposited fluid, and spaced apart from the first pad by a distance, and the second electrode being in contact with the first pad, such that a plurality of the nanoparticles are assembled to form a first elongate structure extending along at least part of the distance between the effective first electrode end position and the portion of the first pad.

A printed circuit board of an information handling system includes a dielectric layer, adjacent differential pairs, a ground layer, and a ground wall. The adjacent differential pairs are plated on the dielectric layer, and generate crosstalk between each other. The ground wall is in physical communication with and electrically coupled to the ground layer. The ground wall extends substantially perpendicular from the ground layer through the dielectric layer. A top surface of the ground wall is a specific height above a top surface of the adjacent different pairs. The ground wall suppresses the generated crosstalk based on the specific height and a width of the ground wall.
