| 摘要 |
Liquid crystalline compounds are disclosed which compounds are expressed by general formula (1) wherein R1 represents an alkyl group having 1 to 10 carbon atoms, ring A represents 1,4-phenylene or 1,4-cyclohexylene, each of X1, X2, X3, and X4 independently represents hydrogen atom or fluorine atom, Y1 represents CF3 or OCF3, and each of m, n, and p is independently an integer of 1 or 0. The liquid crystalline compounds have a wide temperature. The liquid crystalline compounds have a wide temperature range of nematic phase, low viscosity, large positive DELTA epsilon , high chemical stability, high miscibility with other liquid crystalline compounds at low temperatures, small temperature dependency of viscosity and DELTA epsilon , extremely high specific resistance (high voltage holding ratio), and good UV stability, and are preferably used for TFT. Also, disclosed are liquid crystal compositions containing the liquid crystalline compounds mentioned above, and liquid crystal display devices using the liquid crystal composition.
