Abstract
The frequency response of Michelson- and Sagnac-based interferometers are evaluated and compared, considering the application for gravitatio nal-wave detection. It is shown that Sagnac-based interferometers have some interesting features, but in general do not offer advantages ove r Michelson-based ones for the detection of gravitational waves.
