Front Cover : In article 2000131, Zhanwen Xu, Jiaping Lin, and co‐workers report distinctive optical properties of hierarchically ordered nanostructures with multiple small‐length‐scale hybrid domains self‐assembled from mixtures of multiblock copolymers and nanoparticles. The small‐length‐scale hybrid domains enhance light scattering, which results in an increase and blueshift in optical absorption. These findings can yield guidelines for designing hierarchically ordered functional nanocomposites with light‐harvesting characteristics.
