It's disheartening to hear this last bit.

Many materials "slow down the speed of light". E.g. glass. The "refractive
index" of various glases on which optical instruments depend is the ratio
of
the speed of light in the material to the speed of light in air.

Slowing down the speed of light in a vaccum would be the trick.


I think that could possibly be done using electromagnetic fields.
