Correct - they are used for ac to dc conversion....and the way that they do this is to 'rectify' the input - i.e route the -ve going signal to a +ve output.

Not really sure what you mean by going the 'Mosfet' solution - since mosfets are transistors, any solution would be more complex than a rectifier or a diode...
