As the other answers didn t address my concern I decided to write my own answer    The path given in the icon attribute of the md-icon directive is the URL of a  png or  svg file lying somewhere in your static file directory  So you have to put the right path of that file in the icon attribute  p s put the file in the right directory so that your server could serve it   Remember md-icon is not like bootstrap icons  Currently they are merely a directive that shows a  svg file    Update  Angular material design has changed a lot since this question was posted   Now there are several ways to use md-icon  The first way is to use SVG icons    lt md-icon md-svg-src     lt url of an image file gt   gt  lt  md-icon gt   Example    lt md-icon md-svg-src     static img android svg  gt  lt  md-icon gt   or    lt md-icon md-svg-src       getMyIcon       gt  lt  md-icon gt    where getMyIcon is a method defined in  scope   or  lt md-icon md-svg-icon  social android  gt  lt  md-icon gt   to use this you have to the  mdIconProvider service to configure your application with svg iconsets   angular module  appSvgIconSets     ngMaterial         controller  DemoCtrl   function  scope           config function  mdIconProvider         mdIconProvider        iconSet  social    img icons sets social-icons svg   24         defaultIconSet  img icons sets core-icons svg   24               The second way is to use font icons    lt md-icon md-font-icon  android  alt  android  gt  lt  md-icon gt    lt md-icon md-font-icon  fa-magic  class  fa  alt  magic wand  gt  lt  md-icon gt   prior to doing this you have to load the font library like this     lt link href  https   fonts googleapis com icon family Material Icons  rel  stylesheet  gt   or use font icons with ligatures    lt md-icon md-font-library  material-icons  gt face lt  md-icon gt    lt md-icon md-font-library  material-icons  gt  xE87C  lt  md-icon gt    lt md-icon md-font-library  material-icons  class  md-light md-48  gt face lt  md-icon gt   For further details check our  Angular Material mdIcon Directive documentation   mdIcon Service Documentation   mdIconProvider Service Documentation

The simplest way today would be to simply request the Material Icons font from Google Fonts  for example in your HTML header tag    lt link href  https   fonts googleapis com icon family Material Icons  rel  stylesheet  gt    or in your stylesheet    import url https   fonts googleapis com icon family Material Icons     and then use as font icon with ligatures as explained in the md-icon directive  For example    lt md-icon aria-label  Menu  class  material-icons  gt menu lt  md-icon gt    The complete list of icons ligatures is at https   www google com design icons
