SuperscriptBox
SuperscriptBox[
x
,
y
] represents  in input and output.
Inside \( ... \)
SuperscriptBox[
x
,
y
] can be input as x \^
y.
In a notebook a SuperscriptBox can be created using   6 or ^.  moves out of the superscript.
In StandardForm and InputForm, SuperscriptBox[
x
,
y
] is interpreted on input as Power[
x
,
y
].
The baseline of SuperscriptBox[
x
,
y
] is taken to be the baseline of x.
SuperscriptBox[
x
,
y
] is usually output with y in a smaller font than x.
With the option setting LimitsPositioning->True
y is placed in an overscript position when the whole SuperscriptBox is displayed large, and in a superscript position when it is displayed smaller.
In StandardForm, explicit SuperscriptBox objects are output literally. You can use DisplayForm to see the display form of such objects.
See The Mathematica Book on the web:Section 2.8.10.
