Violation of the fluctuation-dissipation theorem in a two-dimensional Ising model with dipolar interactions

The violation of the fluctuation-dissipation theorem (FDT) in a two-dimensi onal Ising model with both ferromagnetic exchange and antiferromagnetic dip olar interactions is established and investigated via Monte Carlo simulatio ns. Through the computation of the autocorrelation C(t+ t(w),t(w)) and the integrated response (susceptibility) functions we obtain the FDT violation factor X(t+t(w),t(w)) for different values of the temperature, the waiting time t(w) and the quotient delta=J(0)/J(d), J(0) and J(d) being the strengt h of exchange and dipolar interactions, respectively. For positive values o f delta this system develops a striped phase at low temperatures, in which the nonequilibrium dynamics presents two different regimes according to the value of delta. In each regime C(t+t(w),t(w)) displays different scaling l aws. Our results show that such different regimes are not reflected in the FDT violation factor, where X goes always to zero for high values of t(w) i n the aging regime, a result that appears in domain growth processes in non frustrated ordered systems.
