If you set this in your Emacs config:

(setq org-export-with-sub-superscripts '{})

The subscripts and superscripts will be parsed only when the
to-be-subscripted/superscripted is enclosed in _{..} and ^{..}
respectively.

If you don't want to set this option globally,add this to the top of
your Org file:

#+options: ^:{}

>From Org manual (org) Export Settings:

‘^’
     Toggle TeX-like syntax for sub- and superscripts.  If you write
     ‘^:{}’, ‘a_{b}’ is interpreted, but the simple ‘a_b’ is left as it
     is (‘org-export-with-sub-superscripts’).
