Xiaoqin Elaine Li is a Chinese and American experimental physicist whose work uses ultrafast laser spectroscopy to study the quantum electrodynamics of electrons and the quantum properties of nanostructures including van der Waals heterostructures, quantum dots, and optical metamaterials. She is a professor of physics at the University of Texas at Austin, where she directs the Texas Quantum Institute and holds the Jack S. Josey Welch Foundation Science Chair in Science.
