What is the meaning of the Dirac equation obtained from the classical QED Lagrangian?
When I start from the QED Lagrangian density:
$\mathcal L_{QED} = \bar \psi(i\not D-m)-\frac{1}{4}F_{\mu\nu}F^{\mu \nu}\tag1$
by using the EL equations I obtain:
1.) The Dirac equation (I ommited the interaction term):
${\displaystyle (i\gamma ^{\mu }\partial _{\mu }-m)\psi }=0\tag2$
2.) The Maxwell's equations (I ommited the interaction term):
$\partial_\mu F^{\mu \nu}= 0\tag3$
My question:
What kind of equation is eq. $(2)$? Classical or quantum?
It can describe quantum phenomena (at least it was introduced by Dirac historically to do so)...
But I obtained it from the principle of stationary action, so it must be classical field equation.
1.) What eq. do I get when I quantize this Dirac field theory than?
2.) Does the classical field Dirac equation have any physical meaning?
