Massive and massless Dirac equations with Lorentz-covariant cubic nonlinearities are considered in spatial dimension $d=2,3$. Global well-posedness of the Cauchy problem for small initial data in scale-invariant Sobolev spaces and scattering of solutions is proved by a new approach which uses bilinear Fourier restriction estimates and atomic function spaces. Furthermore, global uniform convergence results, both in the massless and in the non-relativistic limit, are proved at optimal regularity. In both regimes, these are the first results which imply convergence of scattering states and wave operators.
