Fixed width is a property of the font, not the letters. You need to choose a fixed width font to display the characters, not type anything special.

No. Those are special Unicode characters. – Marqin Dec 3 '12 at 23:36

This article may help. And then theres This entry. And finally a big table

I do not think any of these are as easy as you would like them to be however.

You may be able to map your own composekey shortcuts. Sorry I can't be of more help, but I have not seen anyone try to do that, that didn't just end up using a font.
