Aerogel, a silicon dioxide crystal lattice, which is more then 99% empty space is the least dense solid structure. It also has excellent thermal insulation properties. It's density is 1mg/cubic cm. In other words it would take 27738 cubic inches (about half a cubic yard) to weigh just 1 pound. It is literally lighter then air at standard temperature and pressure.

I have no idea what a 'lighted weight' is. You don't think gas is a material? Think again! Gas can be compressed, or expanded. It isn't a solid, but it is definitely a material.
