contents We propose a flexible Raman lattice system for alkaline-earth-like atoms to theoretically investigate localization behaviors in a quasi-periodic lattice with controllable non-Hermiticity. Our analysis demonstrates that critical phases and mobility edges can arise by adjusting spin-dependence of the incommensurate potentials in the Hermitian regime. With non-Hermiticity introduced by spin-selective atom loss, our calculations reveal that critical localization behaviour in this system can be suppressed by dissipation. Our work provides insights into interplay between quasi-periodicity and non-Hermitian physics, offering a new perspective on localization phenomena.
