A multiple-sample-holder polishing setup for cross-section sample preparation and a method of making a device using the same are presented. The multiple-sample-holder polishing setup includes a frame. The frame has a hollow center, one or more long and short rods and a recess for accommodating a polishing head. The setup includes one or more sample holders. The sample holder is to be attached to the one or more long and short rods of the frame. A paddle is affixed to each sample holder. A sample is attached to the paddle. The sample is coated with a thin epoxy layer prior to polishing thereby allowing for easy inspection for site of interests as well as quick material removal.
