Abstract: We propose a one-dimensional Hamiltonian $H_{1D}$ which supports Majorana fermions when $d_{x^2-y^2}$-wave superfluid appears in the ultracold atomic system and obtain the phase-separation diagrams both for the time-reversal-invariant case and time-reversal-symmetry-breaking case. From the phase-separation diagrams, we find that the single Majorana fermions exist in the topological superfluid region, and we can reach this region by tuning the chemical potential $mu$ and spin-orbit coupling $alph{a}_R$. Importantly, the spin-orbit coupling has realized in ultracold atoms by the recent experimental achievement of synthetic gauge field, therefore, our one-dimensional ultra-cold atomic system described by $H_{1D}$ is a promising platform to find the mysterious Majorana fermions.
