Thanks Juerg for your reply.
I will try the functional HSE06 as you suggest.
Then I'll add to my input this part:
&XC
&XC_FUNCTIONAL
&XWPBE
SCALE_X -0.25
SCALE_X0 1.0
OMEGA 0.11
&END
&PBE
SCALE_X 0.0
SCALE_C 1.0
&END PBE
&END XC_FUNCTIONAL
&HF
&SCREENING
EPS_SCHWARZ 1.0E-10
EPS_SCHWARZ_FORCES 1.0E-5
&END
&INTERACTION_POTENTIAL
POTENTIAL_TYPE SHORTRANGE
OMEGA 0.11
&END
&MEMORY
MAX_MEMORY 8000
&END
FRACTION 0.25
&END
&END XC

I've seen the ADMM approximation and I'll use it as you suggest me.
Then  I'll add this to my input:
&AUXILIARY_DENSITY_MATRIX_METHOD 
METHOD BASIS_PROJECTION 
ADMM_PURIFICATION_METHOD MO_DIAG 
&END AUXILIARY_DENSITY_MATRIX_METHOD

I also found the ADMM auxiliary basis sets for Y, O and Al in BASIS_ADMM 
and in /BASIS_ADMM_MOLOPT.

However, after this reference calculation with YAG crystal hybrid 
functionals, I would like to try PDOS calculations with hybrid functionals 
on YAG:Yb crystal.
I already have the optimized structure at PBE theory-level.
To save computational time, I would use this geometry as a starting point 
for PDOS computation with hybrid functional.
But to do this I have a problem, I can't find the auxiliary basis ADMM for 
Yb neither in BASIS_ADMM  nor in BASIS_ADMM_MOLOPT .
Can I find it somewhere?

As an alternative, I know that another strategy to perform sufficiently 
accurate PDOS calculations with lower computational cost is the DFT+U 
theory.
But I can't find Hubbard's parameters for 4f Yb and 2p O for a YAG:Yb 
system in the literature.
A cp2k user suggests a U-J value around 4 eV for 4f Yb, but I don't know 
what kind of value I can assign to U-J for 2p O. In some articles I found 
values in the range 6-8 eV for 2p O but for different systems and with 
software other than cp2k. So I think these values are not useful for me.

Sorry for the length of the message.

Thanks a lot 

Alberto
