Abstract In this work, we propose to search for the exotic doubly charmed meson $$T_{cc}^+$$ T cc + and its analog $$T_{cc\bar{s}}^+$$ T c c s ¯ + in $$B_c^+$$ B c + decays, which provide a good environment for the formation of the exotic state containing double charm quarks. Within the molecular scheme, the production of $$T_{cc}^+$$ T cc + and $$T_{cc\bar{s}}^+$$ T c c s ¯ + through various rescattering processes with different intermediate states are investigated. For the moderate values of model parameters, the branching ratios of $$B_c^+$$ B c + decaying into $$T_{cc}^+ \bar{D}^{0}$$ T cc + D ¯ 0 , $$T_{cc}^+ \bar{D}^{*0}$$ T cc + D ¯ ∗ 0 , $$T_{cc\bar{s}}^+ \bar{D}^{0}$$ T c c s ¯ + D ¯ 0 and $$T_{cc\bar{s}}^+ \bar{D}^{*0}$$ T c c s ¯ + D ¯ ∗ 0 are estimated to be of the order of $$10^{-7}$$ 10 - 7 , $$10^{-5}$$ 10 - 5 , $$10^{-6}$$ 10 - 6 and $$10^{-4}$$ 10 - 4 , respectively, which may be tested by future experiments.
