We analyze dynamic back-action in the signal-recycled Michelson-Sagnac interferometer with a translucent membrane positioned in its arm, operated off dark port, and reveal its ’anomalous’ features as compared to the ones of ’canonical’ back-action, obtained within the scope of scaling law. Given the finite reflectivity of the membrane, optical damping as a function of detuning acquires (i) non-zero value on resonance and (ii) several stability/instability regions. In the case of absolutely reflecting membrane, corresponding to a pure Michelson interferometer, off-dark-port regime results in several intersecting regions of positive/negative values of optical spring and damping. For a certain region of parameters, stable sets of both effects in a free-mass interferometer with a single laser drive are possible. Our results can find implementations in both cavity optomechanics, revealing new regimes of cooling of micromechanical oscillators, and in the gravitational-wave detectors, revealing the possibility of stable single-carrier optical spring which can be utilized for the reduction of quantum noise.
