Is it possible to make an HTML element **non-focusable**?

I understand that [a list of elements that can receive focus](https://stackoverflow.com/questions/1599660/which-html-elements-can-receive-focus) can be defined and that a user can navigate through these elements by pressing a `Tab` key. I also see that it is up to the browser to control this.

But maybe there is a way to make certain elements non-focusable, say I want a user to skip a certain `<a>` tag when pressing a `Tab`.
