A rectifier is an electrical device that converts alternating current (AC), which periodically reverses direction, to direct current (DC), which flows in only one direction. The process is known as rectification. Physically, rectifiers take a number of forms, including vacuum tube diodes, mercury-arc valves, copper and selenium oxide rectifiers, semiconductor diodes, silicon-controlled rectifiers and other silicon-based semiconductor switches. Historically, even synchronous electromechanical switches and motors have been used. Early radio receivers, called crystal radios, used a "cat's whisker" of fine wire pressing on a crystal of galena (lead sulfide) to serve as a point-contact rectifier or "crystal detector".
Rectifiers have many uses, but are often found serving as components of DC power supplies and high-voltage direct current power transmission systems. Rectification may serve in roles other than to generate direct current for use as a source of power. As noted, detectors of radio signals serve as rectifiers. In gas heating systems flame rectification is used to detect presence of a flame.
Spring King is a four-piece post-punk band from Manchester, England, who played at SXSW in 2015. They are "a small-scale, art-pop-punk project based in Manchester". They began as a solo project in 2012 of songwriter and producer Tarek Musa, who also sings and plays drums.
Notably, their track "City" was the first song played on Beats 1 by Zane Lowe.

an electrical device which converts an alternating current into a direct one by allowing a current to flow through it in one direction only.
AC to DC voltage conversions visualized with 3D animations. Includes half wave and full wave rectifiers.
This video consist of short but effective animation of Half wave rectifier, it will definitely help you to understand working of half wave rectifier.

Type Hewittic 150/6 24102 Mercury Arc Rectifier. Made in England. 6 wire AC input, DC comes out the bottom, the negative is 0v from the ac transformer. To operate small excitation is obtained within the mercury pool, a single small aux arm via solenoid dips into the mercury to initiate a small excitation arc. Further stability is obtained by constantly running the 2 smaller aux anodes to prevent dropout. The main current is the 6 big Anodes down to the mercury pool. Current passing through the mercury vapour can only travel in one direction, thus creating forward current only. The heat rises to the big envelope and condenses the mercury and it runs back down into the mercury pool. Assumed to be operating 600v 150A

You've got a big mouth! Blessed with no brain!
You cannot keep up, it's all in vain
No use discussing 'cause intelligence you lack
You can't keep up, no hope, you stabbed me in the back
All talk, no action! You bore me so!
You're full of bullshit why don't you go?
You've stated reasons why your past is full of holes
But you chose me, pathetic, what's your fucking goal
Rectifier, Rectifier
I know your name, you no-good liar!
Rectifier, Rectifier
I'll chase your ass till you expire!
Rectifier, Rectifier
My gun is loaded - time to fire!
