Abstract: We propose a new method for determining the Stark broadening of atomic emission lines using laser-induced breakdown spectroscopy. The method allows the determination of the Stark broadening in non-optically thin plasmas, through the introduction of a correction for self-absorption. Couples of lines of the same species are considered. If one of the Stark broadenings is known, the determination of the other does not require the measurement of the electron density of the plasma. Examples are given for the application of the proposed method to the measurement of the Stark broadening of several aluminum emission lines (Al I at 308.2 nm, Al I at 394.4 nm, and Al I at 396.2 nm).
