You can't save the plot itself in HDF5 format, but you can save the raw image data to a FITS or HDF5 file. Take a look at this example for hdf5:

and for FITS:

https://paste.yt-project.org/show/6730/

Both export_fits and export_hdf5 accept a list of fields to export. In both examples I'm only exporting one field, but you can export as many as you like at one time.

The "frb" attribute of a plot object corresponds to a FixedResolutionBuffer instance. You can read more about FixedResolutionBuffer here:
