How i can duplicate database from production database?
I have a little confusion as below.
A) on standby database , Is install oracle database or software only?
B) If software only then how i can connect to rman because on standby database does not contain any database so no possible user?

and Connor said...

A) software only, but use netca (network config assistant) to create a listener
B) start your listener, and then rman will be able to connect to your instance.

The steps for creating a physical standby are well documented:
