I think what you mean is 'one atmospheric pressure'. This is just antoher unit of pressure like Pascal. 1atm is approximately 1000 Newtons per square metre. (1000N/m^2)

Is Pluto's atmosphere thicker or thiner than earth's?

no. This year it is commonly believed that Pluto is, with it's irregular rotation, unable to maintain an atmosphere. However, at some points in it's rotation around the sun, it develops enough inertia to maintain a thin atmosphere. This is coupled with the fact that Pluto is sometimes in a position close enough to the sun for it's icy surface to sublimate. Sublimation describes what happens when a frozen material changes to gaseous form.
