الوصف: A hybrid structure combining the advantages of topological insulator (TI), dielectric ferromagnet (FM), and graphene is investigated to realize the electrically controlled correlation between electronic and magnetic subsystems for low-power, high-functional applications. Two-dimensional Dirac fermion states provide an ideal environment to facilitate strong coupling through the surface interactions with proximate materials. The unique properties of FM-TI and FM-graphene interfaces make it possible for active "manipulation" and "propagation", respectively, of the information state variable based solely on the spin logic platform through electrical gate biases. Our theoretical analysis verifies the feasibility of the concept for logic application with both current-driven and current-less interconnect approaches. The device/circuit characteristics are also examined in realistic conditions, suggesting the desired low-power performance with the estimated energy consumption for COPY/NOT as low as the \textit{attojoule} level.
