In an embodiment, a 3D-printed electrical structure such as an electromagnetic bandgap is provided. The structure includes a dielectric material with an embedded electrical interconnect that functions like a via and electrically connects a first surface of the dielectric material with a second surface of the dielectric material such as a ground plane.
