Present invention is related to a porous substrate loaded with porous nano-particles structure and one-step micro-plasma production method thereof. Due to the micro-plasma system enables to enhance the electron density and promotes reaction speed in the reaction without generating thermal effect, the present invention is allowed to be performed at atmosphere environment. The nano-particles also can be quickly obtained by aforementioned micro-plasma system. The electromagnetic field generated by the micro-plasma can drive the nano-particles to be loaded onto the porous substrate in a one step, rapid and low cost process to improve the conventional techniques which requires relatively long procedure time and complicated process.
