We have measured the temperature dependence of the magnetic hyperfine field in Ag-coated Fe(110) islands on W(110) between 4 and 300 K using nuclear resonant scattering of synchrotron radiation. The decay of the spontaneous magnetization of the islands with increasing temperature differs distinctly from the bulk characteristics and is not described by a simple Bloch's T3/2 law. The deviation is attributed to quantization of spin-waves as a result of geometric confinement in the islands. The data can be explained assuming an effective energy gap in the spin-wave spectrum of ΔE = 6.7±1 meV.
