Let (C,α) and (H, β) be Hom-bialgebras and ω : C × H → H × C a linear map. We introduce a Horn-ω-smash coproduct (Cω H, γ) and give necessary and sufficient conditions for (Cω H, γ) to be a Hom-bialgebra. We study the quasi-triangular structures over (Cω H, γ) and show the necessary and sufficient conditions for (Cω H, γ R) to be a quasi-triangular Hom-Hopf algebra. As applications of our results, we introduce the concept of D(H)* and construct quasi-triangular structures over D(H)*.
