In this talk, I will report our recent developments on various applications of NV center in diamond. In particular, we propose a new architecture for a scalable quantum simulator, which consists of strongly-interacting nuclear spins attached to the diamond surface by its direct chemical treatment, or by means of a functionalized graphene sheet. The initialization, control and read-out of this quantum simulator can be accomplished with nitrogen-vacancy centers implanted in diamond. The system can be engineered to simulate a wide variety of interesting strongly-correlated models with long-range dipole-dipole interactions. We also explore the possibility of using NV center in diamond as a nano-scale sensor to probe the structural and dynamical processes in chemistry/biology.
