Abstract
Single photon interference can be illustrated to physics students through the double-slit interference experiment using very little light and using a video camera and an electronic interface which enables an analog storage oscilloscope to show where photons passed through. The experiment shows the particle nature of light and how single photons interfere with the photons which have preceded them, the succeeding photons, and with themselves.
