Another groundbreaking discovery after graphene is goldene (Kashiwaya et al.,2024). It joins the list of novel 2D materials. It is the first stable monolayer metal sheet and expected to bring in new physics like graphene. We have designed, for the first time, goldene and its bilayer. The bandstructure of goldene has new features forecasting multiple applications. As a first step the interaction of H 2 with goldene is investigated. The H 2 undergoes non-dissociative adsorption on the surface of goldene which is unusual for a metallic surface. Unlike graphene bilayer goldene bilayer turns out to be a quasi 2D material harbouring many interesting properties.
