Gold leaf is like 500 atoms thick, by just beating gold with a hammer.
I'd thought they already have a process for making one atom thick gold, like vapor deposition.
Vapor deposition makes a very rough surface that does not have an atomically uniform thickness, and would not have the same mechanical or electrical properties as an ordered sheet.
