A liquid crystal composition comprising a host material and a low birefringence liquid crystal composition of the formula:
R1—Ar—R2
wherein
R1 and R2, independently of one another, are selected from the group consisting of internally branched alkyl groups having from 4 to 20 carbon atoms, terminally branched alkyl groups having from 3 to 20 carbon atoms, internally branched alkenyl groups having from 3 to 20 carbon atoms and terminally branched alkenyl groups having from 4 to 20 carbon atoms, wherein one or more —CH2— groups in R1 and R2 may be independently replaced with O, said R1 or R2, independently of one another, can be partially or fully halogenated, and wherein one or both of said R1 and R2 can be absent;
Ar is a ring core moiety of the general formula:
wherein Cyc is a cyclohexyl ring or a cyclohexenyl ring;
RX is a phenyl ring which may be optionally substituted with one or more fluorines; RY is a cyclohexyl or cyclohexenyl ring;
wherein x and y are 1 and z is 0;
wherein A is COO; and B is selected from the group of small alkyl or alkenyl group having from 1 to 8 carbon atoms, COO and OCO;
wherein a and b are 1 and d is zero.
