    Abstract: A method and system for changing a pressure within at least one enclosure in a MEMS device are disclosed. In a first aspect, the method comprises applying a laser through one of the at least two substrates onto a material which changes the pressure within at least one enclosure when exposed to the laser, wherein the at least one enclosure is formed by the at least two substrates. In a second aspect, the system comprises a MEMS device that includes a first substrate, a second substrate bonded to the first substrate, wherein at least one enclosure is located between the first and the second substrates, a metal layer within one of the first substrate and the second substrate, and a material vertically oriented over the metal layer, wherein when the material is heated the material changes a pressure within the at least one enclosure.

    Abstract: This disclosure provides systems, methods, and apparatus for a MEMS display incorporating extended height actuators. A light modulating component can be positioned between a substrate and an opposing surface coupled to the substrate. A suspended electrode can be coupled to the light modulating component and suspended between the substrate and the opposing surface. An extended-height electrode can be positioned immediately adjacent to the suspended electrode, and can extend from the substrate up to a height beyond the height of the suspended electrode. The suspended electrode and the extended-height electrode can be configured to move the light modulating component laterally with respect to the substrate.
