    <p>Dear Marcelo</p>
    <p>Another option would be to do a chemical substitution of one
      element far from the probed atom, for which you want to estimate
      EFG, in such a way to compensate the charge. <br>
    </p>
    <p>This will allow you to use hybrid. Indeed, EFG is a local probe
      and thus using a supercell with a reasonnable separation between
      the probe and the compensation charge element (10 angström) you
      will have relevant results. <br>
    </p>
    <p>Cheers</p>

      <div class="">Since hybrid functional calculations for charged
        cells is still not possible, do you think that a plausible
        approach to compare the EFG of different charged states using
        hybrid functionals could be done by calculating the variation in
        each EFG orbital component from PBE to hybrid and then consider
        that a similar variation in each component could be expected for
        the charged state, therefore enabling an estimation of the EFG
        for the charged state?</div>
