A:
There is no API in the Android SDK to allow user apps to do this.
The closest you could perhaps try would be PowerManager.goToSleep().

I think you'd need permission `DEVICE_POWER` which is system only.

There are apps on the Market that use internal, non-public APIs, or require your phone to be rooted. It's not an advisable approach.
