In this paper, we consider the existence of least energy nodal solution and ground state solution, energy doubling property for the following fractional critical problem
$ \begin{cases} -(a+ b\|u\|_{K}^{2})\mathcal{L}_K u+V(x)u = |u|^{2^{\ast}_{\alpha}-2}u+ k f(x,u),&x\in\Omega,\\ u = 0,&x\in\mathbb{R}^{3}\backslash\Omega, \end{cases} $
where $ k $ is a positive parameter, $ \mathcal{L}_K $ stands for a nonlocal fractional operator which is defined with the kernel function $ K $. By using the nodal Nehari manifold method, we obtain a least energy nodal solution $ u $ and a ground state solution $ v $ to this problem when $ k\gg1 $, where the nonlinear function $ f:\mathbb{R}^{3}\times\mathbb{R}\rightarrow \mathbb{R} $ is a Carathéodory function.
