"quantum interference among several single photons using resource-efficient platform... light's wave-particle duality induces interference patterns, enabling encoding, processing quantum information... temporal encoding manipulates photons' time (not spatial) domain... optical fiber loop enables repeated use of same optical components, facilitating efficient, less resources multi-photon interference... quantum interference among up to 8 photons... interference pattern can be reconfigured, scaled, without changing optical setup"
