Abstract
It is shown that in a relativistic quantum field theory satisfying Wightman's axioms, there are no nontrivial field-like operators, or even bilinear forms, associated to a two (or less)-dimensional spacelike plane in Minkowski space. This generalizes Wightman's result that fields can not be defined as operators at a point and stands in contrast to Borchers' result that field operators can be associated with one-dimensional timelike planes.
