= Single particle double slit experiment
This experiment seems to be really hard to do, and so there aren't many super clear demonstration videos with full experimental setup description out there unfortunately.
Wikipedia has a good summary at: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Double-slit_experiment#Overview
For single-<photon> non-<double-slit experiments> see: <single photon production and detection experiments>. Those are basically a pre-requisite to this.
<photon> experiments:

<electron> experiments: <single electron double slit experiment>.
Non-<elementary particle>:

* https://interactive.quantumnano.at/letsgo/ awesome interactive demo that allows you to control many parameters on a lab. Written in Flash unfortunately, in 2015... what a lack of future proofing!

{description=Claims to do exactly what we want, but does not describe the setup precisely well enough. Notably, does not justify how he knows that single photons are being produced.}
