X-ray-dim isolated neutron stars (XDINSs), also known as the Magnificent Seven, exhibits a Planck-like soft X-ray spectrum. In the optical/ultraviolet(UV) band, there is an excess of radiation compared to the extrapolation from the X-ray spectrum. A model of bremsstrahlung emission from a nonuniform plasma atmosphere is proposed in the regime of a strangeon star to explain the optical/UV excess and its spectral deviation. The nonuniform atmosphere is formed by the accretion of interstellar matter which moves along the magnetic field lines to polar caps, and these particles may spread out of the pole regions. The modeled electron temperatures are eV with radiation radii km. The spectra of five sources (RX J0720.4–3125, RX J0806.4–4123, RX J1308.6+2127, RX J1605.3+3249, RX J1856.5–3754) from optical/UV to X-ray bands could be well fitted by the radiative model, and exhibit gaussian absorption lines at eV as would be expected. Furthermore, the surroundings (i.e., fallback disks or dusty belts) of XDINSs could be tested by future observations with the Large Optical Telescope (LOT).
