Abstract
A local model of the dielectric response of a metal predicts that singular surfaces, such as sharp-edged structures, have a continuous absorption spectrum and extreme concentration of energy at the singularity. Here we show that nonlocality drastically alters this picture: the spectrum is now discrete and energy concentration, though still substantial, is greatly reduced.
