Superscripts and subscripts of arbitrary height can be done with the \raisebox{<dimen>}{<text>} command: the first argument is the amount to raise, and the second is the text; a negative first argument will lower the text. In this case the text is not resized automatically, so a sizing command can be included, e.g. go\raisebox{1ex}{\large home}.
A superscript or subscript is text that is positioned slightly above or below the normal line of type. Superscripts and subscripts are often rendered in a smaller font size than the adjacent normal text. This part of the Manual of Style aims to achieve consistency in the use and formatting of superscripts and subscripts in Wikipedia articles.
Partly because of this, superscript numerals have increasingly been used in modern literature in the place of these symbols, especially when several footnotes are required. Some texts use asterisks and daggers alongside superscripts, using the former for per-page footnotes and the latter for endnotes.
Additional superscript capitals are ᴭ ᴯ ᴲ ᴻ. Some of these are small caps in the source documents in the Unicode proposals. Superscript capital s has been proposed for a future version of the Unicode Standard. [8] [9] Superscript versons of small capital A and E have been proposed for a future version of the Unicode Standard. [10] [11] [9]

Superscripts and Subscripts is a Unicode block containing superscript and subscript numerals, mathematical operators, and letters used in mathematics and phonetics. The use of subscripts and superscripts in Unicode allows any polynomial, chemical and certain other equations to be represented in plain text without using any form of markup like HTML or TeX.

Superscripts text, i.e. {{sup|Text to be superscripted}} produces: Text to be superscripted. This template is listed at Wikipedia:Subst as a good candidate for substituting (i.e. {{subst:sup}}). On a page that uses the template many times, however, this is likely to clutter and lengthen the page significantly.
