摘要
We address an imbalanced two-component atomic Fermi gas restricted by a one-dimensional (1D) optical lattice and an external harmonic potential, within the mean-field Bogoliubov-de Gennes formalism. We show that characteristic features of the Fulde-Ferrell-Larkin-Ovchinnikov state are visible in the rf spectra and in the momentum-resolved photoemission spectra of the gas. Specially, Andreev states or midgap states can be clearly resolved, which gives a direct experimentally observable signature of the oscillating order parameter.
