Convert sunlight into electricity and then use that electricity to run a light.
Not very efficient (you lose most of the sunlight) but it does work.

No. You can store the solar-sourced power in a battery or capacitor and use it to run a light source later, but that was not your question. You can't "save" light in the same way that you cant "save" sound.

You can convert the energy through a solar panel in to electricty and store that in a battery. Then you can use the battery to power a torch.

You could use a photovoltaic cell to charge a battery, then use the battery at will to power a lamp with a solar light spectrum.

Indirectly yes, you could use a photovoltaic panel to charge a battery and then use the battery to power a light

not in that way but we can store the power and use it to make light later

Whilst it is very difficult to imagine, I think there was an artical on the BBC News website about some scientists that had managed to do it.
Mabye it's just me though.

Solar panel, battery, flashlight.
