There really is no smallest unit of length..since real numbers go on infinitely in both directions, fractions can become almost infinitely small. So no, attometer isn't the smallest unit because there can always be something smaller. It just becomes a matter of finding an appropriate prefix (milli for 1/1000, nano for 1/1000000000, and so on) or the correct scientific notation to express it. If someone tells you there's a "smallest", they're kinda lying to you.
