This is called subscript. In order to type in subscript on programs like Microsoft Word press the "ctrl" key (doesn't matter if it's lctrl or rctrl); while holding it down also press the "=" key then let go. From now on anything you type will be in subscript. In order to get out of subscript mode press "ctrl" and "=" at the same time again. In order to do this in programs like Google Drive, just replace "=" with "," and it should work the same way.
