We show that hybrid MnO<sub>x</sub>/C<sub>60</sub> heterojunctions can be used to design a storage device for spin-polarized charge: a spin capacitor. Hybridization at the carbon-metal oxide interface leads to spin-polarized charge trapping after an applied voltage or photocurrent. Strong electronic structure changes, including a 1-eV energy shift and spin polarization in the C<sub>60</sub> lowest unoccupied molecular orbital, are then revealed by x-ray absorption spectroscopy, in agreement with ...[more]
