This work presents an analytic angular differential cross section formula for the electromagnetic radiation field assisted electron scattering by %% was on impurities in semiconductors. These impurities are approximated with various model potentials. The scattered electrons are described by the well-known Volkov wave function, which has been used describe strong laser field matter interaction for more than half a century, %% I would remove this time reference for clarity which exactly describes the interaction of the electron with the external oscillating field. These calculations show that the electron conductance in a semiconductor could be enhanced by an order of magnitude if an infrared electromagnetic field is present with $ 10^{11} < I < 10^{13}$ W/cm$^2$ intensity.
