Graphene is considered one of the thinnest materials in the world, as it is a single layer of carbon atoms arranged in a two-dimensional honeycomb lattice structure. Its thickness is approximately one atom thick, making it incredibly thin and flexible.
There are lots of things that are small from water bears to single celled organisms to plankton so we may never find out
If you're looking for something that you can actually handle with your hands, then graphene is the answer. Graphene is 1 molecule thick and might actually have some uses as a filter. Of course there are thinner things, such as a single electron or a single preon. A preon is what makes up a quark, which makes up a subatomic particle (like a proton, electron, or neutron) then that makes an atom. There will always be something smaller when in this subject of science, but lets just say its graphene.
An Ultra Low-Density Liquid
An ultra low-density liquid, some 1013 times thinner than water, might form inside Bose-Einstein condensates under the action of the "Efimov effect," a quantum phenomenon in which the atoms in the cloud attract each other when considered two at a time but repel each other when considered three at a time. In such an Efimov cloud the atoms would be some 20 times farther apart that in a BEC, which is itself pretty sparse---a million times thinner than air. And yet this new type of condensate would not be a gas but a liquid!
According to Aurel Bulgac of the University of Washington the exquisite coordination of atoms in an Efimov condensation would allow it to be self bound (the constraining magnetic fields used to keep a BEC from drifting apart would be unnecessary); moreover, it would be neither compressible nor dilutable. This extraordinary quantum liquid---the smallest density condensed matter system yet proposed---could probably only be formed at much colder temperatures than are now available in BEC experiments. Bulgac proposes that Efimov droplets made from boson atoms be called "boselets." The fermion version would be "fermilets."
My guess is that the thinnest liquid is also one that also evaporates the fastest... so maybe some kind of alcohol?

What is the worlds thinnest paper in the world?
It is cardboard paper
Which of Earth's main layers is the thinnest?
The outermost layer, called the crust, is the thinnest layer of the earth.
Where is the thinnest layer of ozone?
The thinnest layer of ozone is at the poles. It is because the depletion is abundant at the poles.
Is the asthenosphere the thinnest layer?
No. The mantle is below the crust (what we live on), which is the thinnest layer of the earth.
Name the thinnest layer?
crust

What is the thinnest object in the world?
One of the thinnest objects in the world is graphene, which is a single layer of carbon atoms arranged in a hexagonal lattice. It is just one atom thick, making it the thinnest material known to exist.
What layer is the thinnest of the earth?
The thinnest layer of Earth is the Lithosphere, also commonly called the crust.
