We develop a first-principles method to simulate the propagation of intense and ultrashort pulsed light in crystalline thin films solving the Maxwell equations for light electromagnetic fields and the time-dependent Kohn-Sham equation for electrons simultaneously using common spatial and temporal grids. As a demonstration, we apply the method to silicon thin films.
