Explanation:
Detailed explanation-1: -The correct answer is Rectifier. A rectifier is a device that converts an oscillating two-directional alternating current (AC) into a single-directional direct current (DC).
Detailed explanation-2: -AC to AC converters with a DC link generally consists of a rectifier, DC link, and inverter as in this process the AC is converted into DC by using the rectifier. After being converted into DC, the DC link is used to store DC power, and then again it is converted into AC by using the inverter.
Detailed explanation-3: -Storage: Direct current can be stored, whereas, alternating current cannot be. So in order to store electric energy, alternating current is converted into direct current.
