Shown is a liquid crystal composition satisfying at least one of characteristics such as a high maximum temperature, a low minimum temperature, a large elastic constant, a suitable optical anisotropy and a large negative dielectric anisotropy, or has a suitable balance regarding at least two of the characteristics, and an AM device including the composition. The liquid crystal composition may contain a specific compound having a high maximum temperature, a low minimum temperature, a large elastic constant and a large negative dielectric anisotropy as a first component, a specific compound having a high maximum temperature or a small viscosity as a second component, a specific compound having negative dielectric anisotropy as a third component, or a specific compound having a polymerizable group as an additive component. |
