Orbital Fulde-Ferrell-Larkin-Ovchinnikov (FFLO) states are analyzed within mean-field theory, where orbital FF state is layer-polarized with inversion symmetry broken, while orbital LO state is Josephson vortex array with translation symmetry reduced. Phase diagrams of orbital FFLO states are obtained, and properties such as induced orders, superconducting diode effects, Fraunhofer pattern and topological defects are studied for the probe of FF versus LO states.
