    摘要: A liquid crystal cell in which antenna units are arranged includes a TFT substrate, a slot substrate, and a liquid crystal layer. The TFT substrate includes a first dielectric substrate, TFTs supported by the first dielectric substrate and patch electrodes electrically connected to the TFTs, and a first alignment film covering a groove part between the adjacent patch electrodes. The slot substrate includes a second dielectric substrate, a slot electrode including slots and supported by the second dielectric substrate, and a second alignment film covering the slot electrode. The liquid crystal layer sandwiched between the TFT substrate and the slot substrate. The liquid crystal layer includes a liquid crystal material having a lower limit temperature of a nematic phase of the liquid crystal material of −32° C. or lower and an upper limit temperature of the nematic phase of the liquid crystal material of 110° C. or higher.

    摘要: A liquid crystal composition that satisfies at least one of characteristics such as a high maximum temperature, a low minimum temperature, a wide temperature range of a liquid crystal phase, a small viscosity, a large optical anisotropy, a large positive or negative dielectric anisotropy, a large specific resistance, a high stability to light, a high stability to heat and a large elastic constant or that is suitably balanced between at least two of these characteristics. The means is use of a liquid crystal composition that includes a specific compound having a high maximum temperature or a small viscosity as a first component, and that may include a specific compound having a large positive dielectric anisotropy as a second component, or a specific compound having a large negative dielectric anisotropy as a third component or a specific compound having a polymerizable group as a first additive.
