Well I believe I have all the answers I need here, so I appreciate your help! (to all who responded)

Well you've made it quite clear my idea is a tad bit illogical, ((which I will attempt to disprove you on, but this will be at a later date) how about this then : What if it could be sized down to a small contraption (possibly strapped to one's back, and similar to an m2 flamethrower) in the sense that photons will quickly be gathered by the back mounted solar arrays and then fired out of a sort of pulse shotgun to blind or stun people? (could be used by riot control, police, (etc.) as it would be much more effective and harmless then pepper spray and boiling water ) Forgive me for my persistence but I don't enjoy "giving up a fight", if you know what I mean.

Hello Scienceforum.net users, I have multiple (somewhat ludicrous) ideas for a "photon cannon" type of idea. The theory is that a large piece of artillery could store up a super dense "energy ball" of photons via a large array of hypersensitive solar panels and would then be placed in a silicon-lead alloy projectile that would fire from the artillery and cause a mass area of high radiation along with the possibility of a large electromagnetic pulse. (This is in theory though. I'm not planning on becoming the next Robert Oppenheimer) My question is though, how would I be able to store and condense a mass amount of photons for a prolonged period of time? (note that if my ideas are a bit off, I am only 14 years old, not a genius in the field of quantum theory)
