Is there an ineherent roughness due to tetrahedral shape of the carbon bonds? What's the spacing between carbon atoms? (These two answers might also tell us the real thickness of the layers.) Can anything pass between the carbon atoms of a "solid" sheet"? Just how strong is it? How big of a piece has been made, or can be made?
