A liquid crystal material for a display device includes a first chiral nematic liquid crystal component and a second component that exhibits no liquid crystalline phase at any temperature. The second component is present in an amount effective to reduce the bulk viscosity of the liquid crystal material by at least about 26% at room temperature or is present in an amount of at least about 5% by weight based upon the total weight of the liquid crystal material. The liquid crystal material may have a positive dielectric anisotropy. The second component may have a molecular weight not exceeding 205 grams/mole. Embodiments relate to a display device comprising the present material. Another aspect includes a method of increasing the switching speed in a display that employs the present material.
