The present invention provides a liquid crystal composition and an AM device containing the composition. The liquid crystal composition has the characteristics of high upper limit temperature, low lower limit temperature, low viscosity, appropriate optical anisotropy, and large dielectric anisotropy. Satisfy at least one characteristic or have an appropriate balance with respect to at least two characteristics. The liquid crystal composition of the present invention contains a specific compound having a large positive dielectric anisotropy as the first component and a specific compound having a small viscosity as the second component, and may also contain a high upper limit as the third component. A specific compound having a temperature or a low viscosity, a specific compound having a positive dielectric anisotropy as the fourth component, or a specific compound having a negative dielectric anisotropy as the fifth component. |
