An inverter
An electrical device that converts alternating current to direct current is known as a rectifier. An inverter is a device that converts direct current to alternating current.
To convert direct current to alternating current you need either an inverter or a motor-generator set.
An alternator is a device that converts DC (direct current) to AC (alternating current). If you need to convert AC to DC, then you need a rectifier.
Rectifier is used to convert alternating current to direct current.
A diode does that.
It's called an inverter.
Alternating current. Direct current is used in batteries.
The type of diode used to convert alternating current in to direct current is the power diode.
First, the alternating current is filtered through a rectifier diode, that is, a device that lets the current pass only in one direction. This will produce a current that goes only in one direction, but that pulsates. To smooth this out, i.e., to convert it into a relatively uniform current, capacitors are used as "buffers".

Alternating current is better than direct current for transmission.
