We demonstrate a scheme to control the spatially dependent hyper-Raman scattering based on electromagnetically induced transparency in a cold atomic system. By adjusting the different system parameters, one can effectively modulate the phase and intensity of the generated Raman field. Specifically, we show that electromagnetically induced transparency creates quantum interference, which results in greatly enhanced efficiency for the generated Raman field. Such improvement in Raman efficiency makes our scheme suitable for generation of short-wavelength coherent radiation, conversion of frequency, and nonlinear spectroscopy based on orbital angular momentum light.
