A method to suppress the scattering of inorganic nanoparticle inclusions within organic embedding media is presented. Suppression takes place by means of appropriate surface modification (using ATRP), such as to match the effective refractive index of the resulting core‐shell particle to the refractive index of the embedding medium.
