The present invention provides a liquid crystal composition containing an additive for improving driving voltage and response speed, a method of using the same, and a liquid crystal display device containing the liquid crystal composition. A complex in which a host compound having an inclusion ability for liquid crystal molecules is bonded to metal oxide nanoparticles and a general formula (1-0) (wherein R is an alkyl group having 1 to 5 carbon atoms or carbon) Each represents an alkenyl group having 2 to 5 atoms; each of A 1 and A 2 independently represents a 1,4-phenylene group, a trans-1,4-cyclohexylene group or a naphthalene-2,6-diyl group; The 1,4-phenylene group or naphthalene-2,6-diyl group is unsubstituted or has one or more F or Cl as a substituent; Z 1 and Z 2 are each independently Represents a bond, —COO—, —CF 2 O—, or — (CH 2 ) 2 —; X 1 and X 2 each independently represent H, F, Cl, CF 3 or OCF 3 ; A liquid crystal composition containing a compound represented by 1 or 2).
