Hi. I am a beginner of Ansys FDTD, and interested in simulating optical properties of organic materials, especially bio one, for example, structures made of protein and DNA molecules. However, in the default material data base, there is no database which can be used to simulate such organic materials.

I have two questions. 

1) Is there any other similar materials in the database to use as an alternative to these materials above?

2) Is it possible to manually add database of new materials? If so, what kind of measurements do I need to do?

Thank you very much in advance and I look forward to hearing advices from you who may have had similar questions!
