Zusammenfassung:The present invention addresses the problem of providing: a liquid crystal composition for a smart window, which is autonomously driven by only sunlight as an energy source without using electrical energy; and a liquid crystal dimming element provided with the liquid crystal composition. This liquid crystal composition contains: a non-polymerizable liquid crystal compound (LB) which exhibits a smectic A phase at room temperature and exhibits a chiral nematic phase on the high-temperature side of the smectic A phase; and at least one dye having a photoisomeric group. 根据本发明,本发明的课题在于能够提供一种不使用电能而仅以太阳光为能源进行自主驱动的智能窗用液晶组合物、具备其的液晶调光元件。本发明的液晶组合物含有非聚合性液晶化合物(LB)、以及至少1种具有光异构性基团的色素,所述非聚合性液晶化合物(LB)在室温呈现近晶A相,并且在比该近晶A相更靠近高温的一侧呈现手性向列相。
