Defect-assisted recombination, also known as Shockley-Read-Hall recombination, degrades the performance of electronic and optoelectronic devices.  Point defects can also be used beneficially, for instance in quantum information science as analogs of the NV center in diamond.  I will discuss the theoretical advances that are enabling us to calculate energetics as well as electronic and optical properties with unprecedented accuracy.  In addition to radiative recombination, we also study nonradiative processes.  Based on simple rules, one expects defect-assisted nonradiative recombination to become less important in wider-gap materials, but a number of examples show a different trend.  We have explained this by noting the crucial role of excited states in recombination processes, transition-metal impurities being an important example.
