Patent ID: 6905740

Claim:
A matrix liquid crystal display comprising: two plane parallel support plates which together with a frame form a cell, integrated non-linear elements for switching individual picture elements on the support plates and a nematic liquid crystal mixture which is present in the cell and has a positive dielectric anisotropy and high resistivity, wherein the liquid crystal mixture is based on the following components: a) at least 10% by weight of a liquid-crystalline component B comprising one or more compounds having a dielectric anisotropy of more than +1.5, containing more than 50% of nitrile-free fluorinated compounds and comprising one or more compounds having a terminal phenyl ring, wherein the terminal phenyl ring comprises a polar terminal group and at least one F-atom in an ortho position with respect to the polar terminal group; b) up to 90% by weight of a liquid-crystalline compound A comprising one or more compounds having a dielectric anisotropy of −1.5 to 1.5 of the general formula I in which R 1 and R 2 are each, independently of one another, n-alkyl, ω-fluoroalkyl or n-alkenyl having up to 9 carbon atoms, the rings A 1 , A 2 and A 3 are each, independently of one another, 1,4-phenylene, 2- or 3-fluoro-1,4-phenylene, trans-1,4-cyclohexylene or 1,4-cyclohexenylene, Z 1 and Z 2 are each, independently of one another, —CH 2 CH 2 — or a single bond, and m is 0, 1, or 2, and c) 0 to 20% by weight of a liquid-crystalline component C comprising one or more compounds having a dielectric anisotropy of less than −1.5, and the nematic liquid crystal mixture has a nematic phase range of at least 60° C., a maximum viscosity at 20° C. of 30 mPa·s and a mean dielectricity constant ∈≦8.
