Simulate material with X^2 off diagonal elements different from zero?

      Hi, I want to simulate a material whose nonlinear susceptibility tensor  contains only off-diagonal components.

      But when I try to add new X^2 material this has only one value or three for the diagonal case.

      What can I do?

      non-diagonal tensor must be diagnolized and use both the diagonal elements and the transfer matrix as input. please refer to this article and example  https://optics.ansys.com/hc/en-us/articles/360034394694-Creating-anisotropic-optical-materials-in-FDTD-and-MODE
